Simulations

Each simulation tests one or more hypotheses from the hypotheses page. Each has its own page with the full README, plus a self-contained interactive visualization that fetches results.json and renders the grid + charts in the browser.

SimulationHypothesisResult
sim01 โ€” Pheromone TrailsH2, H3Trails form: concentration 0.79 vs blind 0.27. trail_cells measures coverage, not trails. โ€” visualization
sim02 โ€” Dynamic Fitness LandscapeH4Both converge; dynamic converges harder (diversity 2 vs 4), fitness 1.11 vs 0.77. โ€” visualization
sim03 โ€” Chemical OrganizationsH98/9 organizations, 1/24 nested. Org lattice is static by construction, not measured. โ€” visualization
sim04 โ€” Evolving NetworksH9Exhausts space (510/510), stalls. Cores 3 vs 3 โ€” no evolving advantage. โ€” visualization
sim05 โ€” Lambda ChemistryH10L1 forms; L2 coexistence 2/6 (was 0/6 โ€” artifact). H10 weakened. โ€” visualization
sim06 โ€” Termite MoundH7Null, but weak: +66% structure; near miss (stability 0.849โ€“0.893 vs 0.90). โ€” visualization
sim07 โ€” Transport CouplingH7Null: scalar transport fragments (stability โ†“, pillars โ†‘ as M_c drops). โ€” visualization
sim08 โ€” Density CapH11Partial: non-saturating cap consolidates (pillars 101โ†’52) but stability doesn't rise. โ€” visualization
sim09 โ€” Curvature ChannelH7, H11Curvature channel runs end-to-end; crossing doesn't fire at default params. โ€” visualization
sim10 โ€” L2 CompositionH7, H10The crossing does not compose โ€” 15/16 two-seed runs merge at the crossing regime. โ€” visualization
sim11 โ€” Boundary MechanismH7, H10Long-range inhibitor is a weak positive โ€” 2/4 clean coexistence at g=0.9, up from 0/4. โ€” visualization
sim12 โ€” Autopoietic BoundaryH5, H6, H7, H10Autopoietic boundary is more stable (4/4 vs 1/4) but less specific โ€” clean 2/4 = same as passive. โ€” visualization
sim13 โ€” Direct-Material Co-PresenceH5, H6, H7, H10Direct-material eliminates torus leak but agent wander still causes false boundaries โ€” clean 1/4. โ€” visualization
sim14 โ€” Heterogeneous AgentsH5, H6, H7, H10ID-tagged agents break false positives (1-seed 0/4) but suppress H7 crossing. Trade-off shifts to strength-vs-growth. โ€” visualization
